To meet the growing demand for unique and handmade cremation urns, OneWorld Memorials has created a new "Artisan Urns" section in its online store.

Previously, the company has highlighted a number of handcrafted items imported from traditional artisans in Kenya, Peru, Turkey, and China. Now, Ira Woods, OneWorld Memorials President, wants to bring attention to a number of American artists and sculptors as well.

Under the main drop-down menu of its website, the "Artisan Urns" section contains a plethora of cremation urns handmade in the USA and cremation jewelry designed by professional artists. Woods calls these items OneWorld Memorials "handmade treasures," ranging from understated cherry wood urns to high-end brass cremation pendants.

"When you're searching for that special, one-of-a-kind memorial cremation urn or keepsake that will really speak to you, an artisan, hand-made item is a great place to start," Woods says. "Hand-made artistic urns carry the distinctive creativity and feeling that an artist and serious craftsperson can embed in each piece. It’s satisfying to have a loved one rest in a memorial that reflects the tastes and personality that you and your family will treasure for decades to come."

In keeping with the Made in the USA theme, one of the most prominent urns featured in the new artisan store is a traditional flag box and wooden urn with a rose granite inlay for engraving, ideal for memorializing a veteran.

There are also artistic cremation ash jewelry, biodegradable burial urns made from catalpa wood, ambrosia wood-based urns finished with colorful dyes, as well as a variety of handmade and kiln fired ceramic cremation urns for ashes.

Finally, Woods says he has a queue of new and exciting pieces to add to the section as the year unfolds.
